The magru appears to be a huge, gelatinous red lump that pulses, swelling and shrinking slightly with a hypnotic rhythm. Its skin glistens with a dark, disgusting ooze.

Invulnerabilities

Any weapon attack except for one-handed blunt weapons is useless against a magru.

You swing your pink vultite maul at the magru, but when the weapon slices through the magru's flesh, the wound closes instantly leaving no trace that the magru was injured!

Magru are also immune to fire damage.

You utter a light chant and raise your hands, beckoning the lesser spirits to aid you with the Fire Spirit spell...
Your spell is ready.
You gesture at a magru.
You hurl a roaring ball of fire at a magru!
  AS: +265 vs DS: +75 with AvD: +70 + d100 roll: +86 = +346
  The magru scoffs at the heat!
The roaring ball of fire strikes a magru, blossoming into a much larger sphere of flame upon impact.

A burst of flame from your roaring ball of fire flies off and hits a magru.

Cast Roundtime 3 Seconds.

Stream of Fluid

More offensive stances are safer against the magru's stream of fluid attack, which causes acid damage.

  • Successful dodge:

A magru pulsates violently and a stream of dark fluid shoots out in your direction!
You try to dodge out of the way and manage to avoid the stream of fluid.

  • Mild hit:

A magru pulsates violently and a stream of dark fluid shoots out in your direction!
You try to dodge out of the way but you are struck by the stream of fluid!
Hit for 3 concussion points.
... 2 points of damage!
Bit of acid strikes your calf leaving bright red spots.

  • Major hit:

A magru pulsates violently and a stream of dark fluid shoots out in your direction!
You try to dodge out of the way but you are struck by the stream of fluid!
Hit for 5 concussion points.
... 22 points of damage!
Acid dissolves the skin on the neck exposing the windpipe!
You are stunned for 6 rounds!

Looting Gems

  • Perception plays a role in searching or looting them. Each search causes one minor hand injury and uncovers between zero and three gems. There is no known way to avoid the hand wound, so access to a good bundle of ambrominas leaf or Troll's Blood (1125) is recommended. Alternatively, one might be able to ignore the wounds allow the minors to accumulate to mediums, effectively maintaining two fractured and bleeding hands.

You reach out to search the magru.
As soon as you make contact with it, you feel an intense burning sensation! You are injured!
You do not find anything in the disgusting pile of jelly.
The remains of a magru evaporate away.
